This article focuses on the interactions between Gwen and Leshawna.

Overview[]

Leshawna comforts gwen

Leshawna comforts an upset Gwen after witnessing Trent supposedly cheating on her.

Leshawna is arguably Gwen's closest friend during Total Drama Island, with the two often team up during challenges, and both are strongly opposed to Heather. The duo are also seen together during spare time, and stand up for one another no matter what the issue is.

The two remain close in Total Drama Action, which is shown when Leshawna is the second person Gwen picks to be on her team. Their friendship becomes strained after Gwen hits Harold on the head with a shovel to hide a secret. She notices that Gwen continues to act suspicious, which results in her voting Gwen off. Her vote, along with Harold's, Heather's, and Gwen's votes, ultimately leads to Gwen's early elimination in The Chefshank Redemption. Gwen and Leshawna do not interact in Total Drama World Tour due to them being on opposing teams and Leshawna's early elimination. However despite their somewhat negative interaction after the first season, the two of them still seem to be on good terms with each other.

First, Leshawna angrily forms temporary alliances with almost everyone to vote out either Heather or Trent, believing that Trent willingly kissed Heather and cheated on Gwen. She is very happy when Trent is eliminated, but when she learns that it was a trick and Trent is innocent, she apologizes to Gwen. Afterwards, Leshawna tries to make up for her mistake by manipulating the pipes in the communal bathroom to shower Heather with sewage.

Leshawna retaliates against Heather for her actions against Gwen by shredding her clothes. Around the same time, Leshawna comforts Gwen about Trent's elimination before convincing her to take revenge on Heather. In a flashback, Leshawna defends Gwen by slapping Heather when she intentionally turns on the hot water in the sink to make Gwen's shower cold.

During this episode, Leshawna exhibits her underlying support for Gwen by continually cheering her on during the race. She attempts several times to keep her focused and encouraged throughout the entire race. She even tries to motivate Gwen with her other supporter, Eva, but to no avail. Leshawna follows Gwen closely behind nearly the whole time. She, along with Eva and Cody, appear excited when Gwen is close to winning and is dissatisfied when Owen claims victory instead in his ending.

Gwen even shows Trent and Leshawna her friends from home, saying she can't wait for them to meet them. The three of them form a team to retrieve the one million dollars, and do not argue once over splitting their winnings should they succeed, being one of the few teams to cooperate with one another throughout.

Total Drama Action[]

Riot On Set[]

Leshawnafivegwen

Gwen chooses Leshawna for her team.

When Gwen is picking teams, Leshawna is the first girl she chooses to join the Screaming Gaffers, because in her own words, she likes to "keep things cool". Leshawna cheers and gleefully proclaims that "the girls are back in town," referring to herself and Gwen. After Trent picks Lindsay and Justin, Gwen says, "Oh, pick all the good-looking contestants!" to which Leshawna and Duncan glare at her. Leshawna quietly suggests picking Heather for her team, reminding her of "keep your enemies closer." Gwen reluctantly trusts Leshawna's judgment in this case and chooses Heather.

3:10 to Crazytown[]

When Gwen falls from the diving board, Leshawna shoves Trent out of the way and helps Gwen up.

The Chefshank Redemption[]

Leshawna is completely unconvinced of Heather's suspicions that Gwen is selling out the Screaming Gaffers to the Killer Grips, and states that she trusts anyone more than Heather.

Aside from that, Leshawna and Gwen do not get along very much in the episode. Leshawna noticeably disapproves of Gwen knocking her friend Harold out, as well as this action breaking the shovel that they need to get to the finish line. When the Killer Grips win, Leshawna glares at Gwen for her mistake, and also calls her "puke-breath" in irritation. Leshawna later votes Gwen out of the competition. In her confessional, she states that voting for Gwen "hurts," but does it primarily because she hit Harold over the head with a shovel, stating that wasn't right and "when you're not right, you're wrong."

One Flu Over the Cuckoos[]

By this point, Leshawna has learned of Gwen's secret deal with the Killer Grips. However, despite having voted her off in the previous episode, Leshawna clearly regrets Gwen's elimination, as it makes her and her team more vulnerable to Heather, prompting her to propose a new anti-Heather alliance.

However, when interviewed, Gwen seems to harbor no hard feelings for Leshawna and calls her a great friend and a fantastic girl.

Celebrity Manhunt's Total Drama Action Reunion Special[]

Leshawna was supposed to help Gwen in her blog show about the environment but is unable to, most likely due to her participation in other reality shows with Tyler.

Trivia[]

  • Both have dated and dumped a former member of the Killer Bass.
  • Both have been the first contestant to use the confessional for a season.
  • Both are eliminated in the seventh episode of a season, where they are also the fifth person to be eliminated overall.
  • According to Todd Kauffman, the original outline for "Haute Camp-ture" would have had Leshawna giving up her immunity to Gwen under the impression that she would vote Heather off only for Gwen to turn against Leshawna and vote her off instead. It's unknown how this would have impacted their relationship from that point onwards had the original plot not been scrapped.
